Campbell, of that state, was a prominent mem- ber. The company sank a shaft 90 feet, 30 feet of which was in ore and drifted 300 feet. The hard times came on and the project was abandoned, the lease reverting to the Bakers. Since that time the property has laid idle until this spring, when work again commenced by the new lessees. A drill on the property, located some 300 feet from the old shaft, i di to haye cut 37 feet of good ore, and indi- cations are good for the reopening and active development of the mine. The Buckeye is the most. westerly of proven ore bodies, and the success at- tending the new exploratory work at that point will tend to renew activity on the west end, and at intervening points. Mr. Jones has also secured control of twelve forties w of Hib- bing, near the Mahoning property, upon which some good finds of ore have been made. ‘There yet remains abont twelve miles of unexplored land lying between the Stevenson aud Diamond mines, which is being taken up very rapidly and much of it will soon be under exploration. There is hota doubt but that the work will add a number of mines to the range whase associates xplored and perhaps a new town or two? WHERE’S OUR TELEPHONE? Hetlo There, Baumbach ! Please Connect Us With the Iron Range. The Ircn Range Telephone com- pany, of which Hon. W. R. Baum- bach, of Wadena, is president, was re presented here some time ago by gentleman who said that the ¢ pany would institute a system in Grand Rapids at an early date, pro- vided a sutticient number of subscrib- ers could be secured. In conversa- tion witha Herald-Review representa- tive the gentleman stated that he had received very encouraging induce- | ments and that operations would shortly be under wa Since that time—about two montbs ago—nothing has been heard of the matter. Grand Rapids is geiting too big and portly |s to get along much further in this century without a telephone spstem, and if Mr. Baumbach has the right rig and is prepared to make the right sort of proposition, we want to talk business with him. We know the Wadena capitalist and know him to bea thoroughly reliable gentleman, whose word is as good as a govern- ment bond. When his name is at the head of a concern it isa guarantee of reliability, and therefore we have faith in the Iron Range Telephone company. SOME BIG IMPROVEMEN TS. Henry Hughes & Company Have Enlarged Their Store Room Considerable. announcement in this issue of the Herald-Review, Henry Hughes & Co. have found it necessary to enlarge their present quarters in order to ac- commodate their constantly inereas- ing patronage. The main store build- ing has been raised One story, thus giving additional floor room for the display of goods cf 40x24 feet. The first floor is 24x100 feet. At the rear is the delivery and store room 24x24, and the warehouse adjoining is 24x140 feet. This will afford ample accomo- dations for an immense stock, and | that is what Hughes & Co. propose to carry atall times. In the center of the front room a stairway willlead to the second floor, were several lines will be displayed. The company will shortly put in two additional lines— hardware and crockery. 'The improve- mepts and repairs now being made will be pushed as rapidly as possible to completion, and in about ten days, Mr. Hughes says. te expects to have everything in its proper place and be better prepared than ever to sorve the public. The weather Thursday was perfect As will be seen by their advertising | ~ THE BRAVE DEAD. B. F. Huson Post G. A. R. Have Charge of Memorial Services in Grand Rapids. The day was ideal and the spit of the people was n_ keeping with the solemn occasion, which made the ob- Servancé of memorial day. in Grand Rapids one long to be remembered by 10 participated in the program or witnessed the exercises. B. FE ‘uson pust G. A. R. andthe Lad HONORING rangements 2 out as rything was carried iously planned. — Before n the inorning the school children began to gather on the school campus and when the procession was formed to march south to the old cemetery, nearly five hundred little ones headed the column and moved on in the lead when the word was giv- en. Next came the martial band, tol- lowed by B. F. Huson post with 13 members and the Ladies’ circle with 18 members. | Uniformed rank K. P., Modern Woodmen and the firemen came next in order, Upon reaching the cemetery Rev. Father Gamache THE TERM IS CLOSED. Grand Rapids Central Schoo! Was Dismissed on Wednesday for Suminer Vacation. The work of examination having been concluded on Wednesday, except the high school and the eiguth grade, the board directed that the term be cl 1. Yesterday morning between the hours of 9and 11 the pupils in the two grades mentioned concluded writing their examinations and the long looked-for summer outing was a realization. Those of the eighth who pass satisfactorily will receive diplomas which will admit the hold-! ers to enter the high school at the be- gipning of next term. On Thursday evening the pupils of the second and third grades gave a very pleasing en- tainment, “The Dragon Fly” oper- etta. Miss Irish and Miss Cleveland had the affair in charge and to their diligent efforts was due the success that attended the program, The teachers will all desert Grand Rapids at once. Prof. Carroll and M Donaidson will go to Minnea- sud prayer, after which the graves of the-departed soldiers were decorated with flowers.and flags. Returning to Village hall the s were broken and the crowd dispersed until 2 o’clock in the afternoon, Miss Ivy Anderson delivered an address on “Why we Keep Memorial,” . Miss Edith Cross- ley read Lincoln’s speech delivered at Gettysburg; the school children sang -a number of patriotic songs. Comrade Wm. Weitzel delivered the oration of the day, taking for his subject, “Cost, cause, lives , and the results of the great civil w: He was listened to throughout with close attention and received frequent hearty applause. A male quartet, consisting of Messrs. Bueneman, Carroll, O’Donnell and Yancy aided to make the occasion more interesting by the rendition of several selections. The singing of “America” by the school children brought the services to a close. Sen- ator C. C. McCarthy, who was on the program for an address was indisposed and did not appear. THESE WILL TEACH. * Instructors for Central School Next Term Have Been Engaged. iar itp The school board has sieaibes se- cured a full corps of teachers for the t term ofschool, which wiil open September. Miss Donaldson, who has been assistant principal, and Miss Margaret Doran, both voluntarily re- tire, much to the regret of the» board as well as pupils and parents. Miss Donaldson has taught im Central school during the past two years and has given most excellent satisfaction. Miss D oran has been with the school for a number of years and she has al- ways stood high as a most proficient educator. In the retirement of Muss Doran and Miss Donaldson, Central school loses two valuable teachers whose pl ces will not be easily filled. Prof. . Carroll has been re-engag- ed as superintendent; Miss Lydia ‘tummer, of Minneapolis, will be principal; Miss Honora Sutton, assist- ant ‘principal; Miss Sarah Webb, o! Minneapohs, will have charge of the room formerly taught by Miss Doran. For the other grades the same teach- ers have been re-engaged for the posi- tions which they held the past year, viz: Miss Little, Miss O’Shaughnessy, Miss De Armont, Miss Cleveland, Miss Irish and Mrs. Clara Grove. Not Yet Ripe. The Border Budget, published at Koochiching, has the following very sensible comment on county division agitation: “The press of Northern Minnesota, with the exception of the districts really interested, are specu- lating on the probable early division of Beltrami and Itasca countie: creating two vew organizations bor- dering on Rainy river. While the section is pleased to receive the atten- tion accorded, it is certainly prema- ture. Auy one with a kuowledge of the population of the proposed new counties knows well enough that division is not desired at present even if it were possible, and will probably not be asked fora few years to come. We admit that both counties are too large to permit of practical justice in the government of either but the time is not ripe for division.” Divorce in Brainerd High Life. Hon. A. F. Ferris, banker, politician and member of the state legislature, has been granted an absolute divorce from his wife, Annie, on the grounds of habitual drunkevess. The com- plaint alleges that Mrs. Ferris spent mostof her time in the saloons of Brainerd or’in rooms adjacent to saloons in an intoxicated condition during the past year.

A Peculiar Accident. “Toward Anway, whose home is in Walker, was the victim of a peculiar accident on Tuesday afternoon,” re- ports the Walker Pilot. ‘‘Howard has a homestead near Shingobee river and has been there the greater part of the spring clearing up and putting in crop. Last Tuesday after he had fin- ished his day’s work he started out to get the hor to put. them in the barn for the night. He had not gone far when be was struck by lightning and rendered unconscious, remaining in that condition for about three hours. Upon coming to his senses he fuund that agun which he had been carry- ing had been discharged by the shock. But the peculiar part of the accident is that Howard’s power of speech was paralyzed and he has not been able to utter a sound since the occurence. He } remained on his homestead until the following day, when he came to Walk- er, and is now at the home of his parents. Beyond the paralysis of the vocal organs he claims to feel no bad effects from the mishay In order to keep doub!e the room it form partment. as the price. | When the Our aim ‘ir all departments will be, it has always been, to give grade of goods than you can get elsewhere for HE IS A PARKHURS?.

It remains to be seen h successful this last effort will prove. Jovw Sheehy ys. Dulath. About once a week we are treate to a Duluth newspaper writeup co the notorious Joe Sheehy.
